Yeah, this character was not scammed, especially not for a game that is 5 quid on Steam (Vampire Survivors).

Firstly it took him 8 days to reply to my messages to start the trade despite being active online. This is visible in his helpful screengrabs.

Secondly, he is from an extremely restricted region (PH) and did not notify me of this. A cursory Google will show that Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Indonesia have their own small region. One of two keys from me in Europe (Ultra Street Fighter IV) didn't work for him. There was no indication of this region issue on the Humble Bundle key page, so there was no way I could have known. This user however admits that that information is available on the USFIV Steam page when viewed from PH. He never warned me and there is no way I could have known.

He has comments on his Steam profile that suggest he has given cancelled keys to other users. He explains this away as not his fault but cannot understand how I also could not have known. This suggest a maturity issue.

As can be seen in his helpful screengrabs, I offered him to keep the USFIV key to trade and an alternative key from my very large list of games no issue- he refused. This user became extremely immature and rude and would not take another key. I have had similar things happen to me before, as we all have, and have always understood and accepted another key from the list of the trader. It happens, especially when Humble Bundle/Fanatical does not hint at a region lock, which most of the time they do.

I woudl avoid trading with this user at all costs. Not only is he immature and abusive, his Steam profile suggests he has given expired keys before.

Have six years of very pleasurable trading with all others on this site and on barter.

We had a deal, i don't really need other games and the deal was my Vampire Survivors for Ultra Street Fighter 4 And Rain World
here is our conversation

even he didn't specify that his games had region locked and blamed me for having a different region than his
regarding the notification on my country it is clearly visible that i live on the philippines its literally on my profile
really you just don't want to take responsibility for being a bad trader and not double checking if your games had any region lock.

In short this guy is just the worse trader and next time he trades with you it might come with a region lock and you can't activate his game.

(This guy scammed me and you can check our conversation)

(Regarding the cancelled key you can clearly see it was the valfaris game and it had some problems with the developer and i have fixed it myself that guy regained his key back)

This guy is clearly just attacking me through ad hominems and no proof.
